Long-term squatter here, applying for citizenship is expensive (almost 2 grand) and it’s a bloody awful process. It involves taking a test that I’m sure the vast majority of actual citizens would fail. I’d rather put the money towards a house deposit.
that wasn’t the case in sweden until very recently, no test, no language requirement, not sure about the price but i’m sure it wasn’t that expensive cus there were no language tests or knowledge tests to bump up the fees
they basically gave out citizenships to everyone that had lived in the country for a few years.
basically the only option for him to be denied citizenship is that he committed a crime and got jail time or a suspended sentence, and that’s his fault at that point. maybe get citizenship before commiting serious crime lol
I get that, but consider getting a house deposit requires paperwork and financial testing. Skipping or ignoring that paperwork may not serve getting a house deposit.
But it does seem like the person in the article did their paperwork and still ended up being rejected.
Then I’d argue you’re refusing to integrate and you shouldn’t be there. You’re talking about a house, which means even longer term roots. If you’re going to take advantage of their system, you should become willing to integrate.
